Answer:
D. 2/17
Step-by-step explanation:
Add all of the marbles: 6 blue marbles + 6 black marbles + 3 green marbles + 2 purple marbles = 17 marbles altogether.
Since there are 2 purple marbles out of 17 marbles in the paper sack, the complement to the probability that she will draw a purple marble is 2/17.
